The sneaky bit will be that really good weather apps will cost loads and rubbish weather apps will be the ones supplied with the isun as free. Those with the expensive apps will take higher priority than those with the cheap or free apps. If you do not own an isun you will spent your day moving about between other peoples hot cold rain sun snow and end up with hypothermia and flu. <br /><br />Mark my words it is only a matter of time, you cant stop the grinding wheels of technologhy, OK you can with a pointy stick but...........

Of course it will mean that I will have to buy a new coat. The one I have is so old, that when it rains, it smells like wet dog and even wet dogs don't like the smell of wet dog.<br /><br />Mind you, it was hot today and I found myself reenacting a scene from The Wizard Of Oz, by screeching "I'm melting, I'm melting," outside Asda. Not sure why the manager asked me to move on. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06418601369080683210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808596250801819029.post-86322035960636134242013-06-20T00:59:18.982+01:002013-06-20T00:59:18.982+01:00I heard about the North Atlantic being warmer and ...I heard about the North Atlantic being warmer and thus we are getting wetter summers. You do understand when they make such statements, we start getting reverse weather. Remember after we were officially in "drought" conditions in March, 2012, it rained almost continuously after that.<br /><br />Tea cakes for you and another truckload are on the way. Enjoy!<br /><br />Gary!

...Thanks Mr H, I will look out for the Post. . . . <br /><br />I know that Custard Creams are good but there is nothing that can beat a Tunnock's Tea Cake those things are magic although rubbish to dunk in a mug of tea.<br /><br />I tend not to watch politics on the TV these days because I get annoyed by them (politics not TV's ...OK TV's also). It is not party related, because they all annoy me loads. I think sometimes there must be a few honest politicians doing it for the right reason, but I don't think they are allowed on TV....Rob Z Toborhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03570498194207996145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808596250801819029.post-79640138566574469392013-06-19T22:35:48.873+01:002013-06-19T22:35:48.873+01:00After such a warm (and sweaty) day, your blog is t...After such a warm (and sweaty) day, your blog is the perfect tonic.<br />I don't think i have so hard in ages (for the right reasons). thankyou Rob.<br /><br />Speaking of the BBC (or BBC as I like to say it) have you ever watched daily politics on BBC(BBC)2?<br /><br />There is something very un-BBC like that happens on that show every day. I have a half writen post about it for next week, but I am getting photo evidence so people son't think i'm making it up.<br /><br />ps- hope the goat is ok, them pesky aliens.....tut!Petehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14381410202609567450noreply@blogger.com
